Child's Play: Designers Share Their Favorite Back-to-School Looks

Getting clothes for the new school year is the equivalent of a Pretty Woman shopping spree when you're a pint-sized future style star still mastering the finer points of long division. As the kiddos head back to the classroom, we invited some of our favorite designers to reminisce about their too-cool-for-school outfits they loved the most.

"I was in a school where blue marine-and-white was the uniform. So I twisted it between liberty and softness with a teddy chevignon, a little biker jacket in leather from a flea market or a jean jacket, little boots, and a detail of a white shirt. I had the opportunity to choose one coat for the season with my mother. So the masterpiece of every look was my coat that I carefully selected: an Agnès B, an APC, etc. I had a crush on the androgynous look."
